[X] I have searched the existing issues, and I could not find an existing issue for this bug
Current Behavior
I was debugging some issues with a third party tool calling the dbt Core API and digging in the code, I think that the type hint for the return value for the function get_adapter_constraint_support is incorrect.
Is this a new bug in dbt-core?
Current Behavior
I was debugging some issues with a third party tool calling the dbt Core API and digging in the code, I think that the type hint for the return value for the function
get_adapter_constraint_supportis incorrect.It currently says
List[str]https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-adapters/blob/8ff69435a753f0a94dd1274d0e8dad199805cd13/dbt/adapters/factory.py#L191-L192
but in another part of the code, we access it as a dict.

Looking at how the Constraints are defined in one of the adapters (BQ here), it looks like it is indeed a dict:
https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-bigquery/blob/e67848972cce8ab51d68c6d1b1ced0f75816108c/dbt/adapters/bigquery/impl.py#L134-L140
I just realized that the type hint is defined in dbt-adapter so feel free to move the issue there.
Expected Behavior
The type hint is correct
